    The 5 speed is all aluminum. The 6 speed the front half is steel so it is much stronger. They dont split in half like the 5 speed ones do lol

    Plenty of people have split the 5 speed transfercase with all season tires. With your slicks one good solid launch should do it.

    Yeah, one "real" launch with those tires should result in the car moving about 20ft under its own momentum.

    The 6spd TC has weak gears but a VERY strong housing. Funny how that works huh?

    Yup, you'll be getting a billet transfer case soon enough.

    well got the wheels today. My car is currently at my buddys shop getting wet sanded and buffed and the 98 front bumper is getting customized to allow more air. (just getting the front bar removed) should look killer. Once i get her back ill throw on the weels and see how she looks.
